Lol, yeah. It was definitely stupid. Some kid asked me for help getting him in some grad program and I was contemplating charging him for it... Thanks for the perspective WSO community!
Granted, wrong on so many levels , but I like how you come up with creative ways to generate the revenue! XD
More is good, all is better
 

Haha, you make solid posts all the time, nobody is going to really notice or care

I was enjoying reading the community backlash to the idea. Nice to know that a lot of people who post here have some pretty strong morals.

That said -- I wish I could charge anyone for reading any of my informative posts. $0.10 per person per post? Kinda like those banner advertisements...

It was really more of a cost-benefit analysis considering he'd probably be worth more as a connection than the $250 he could pay...don't give everyone too much credit.

People tend to think life is a race with other people. They don't realize that every moment they spend sprinting towards the finish line is a moment they lose permanently, and a moment closer to their death.
